Douluo Continent: Becoming a disciple of Jing Liu, illuminating all the gods

Chapter 50 Absolute Strength, Soul Saint

Chen Qiye knew that without Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's spirit fusion technique, even with the help of Ma Xiaotao and others, they had little chance of defeating Xu Jiujiu's Star Crown spirit.

.........

However, as time went by, the long-lasting Star Guardian did not dissipate; instead, the still-shining Star Guardian became even brighter.

This situation was within Chen Qiye's expectations. There must be something else on Xu Jiujiu's body, such as a soul bone. Once a ten-thousand-year-old soul skill is too scattered, its power will eventually be unable to reach that terrifying level.

At the same time, a smile appeared on Princess Jiujiu's face. It seemed that she had been waiting, or rather, anticipating, this moment.

A ball of golden light shot out from her hand. It was definitely not a soul skill. The golden light flashed for a moment and collided with Ma Xiaotao's terrifying phoenix flames that soared into the sky.

A bizarre scene unfolded as a golden light shield descended from the sky, instantly swirling back and completely enveloping Ma Xiaotao's unleashed sixth soul skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower. It then rapidly descended, suppressing Ma Xiaotao herself within it, effectively suppressing her strongest soul skill.

Ma Xiaotao felt a suffocating sensation descend from the sky. She tried to dodge, but the golden light instantly caught up and suppressed her.

The fact that Ma Xiaotao, the strongest member of the Shrek team, was suddenly trapped is nothing short of a catastrophe for the team.

Princess Jiujiu's tactics were clearly pre-arranged. As soon as Ma Xiaotao was trapped, her fourth soul ring lit up. Centered on her body, a burst of intense starlight burst forth. This time, the starlight was as dazzling as the sun, forming a light shield that forcefully blocked the ice mist outside, only enveloping the seven of their own people, Dai Yueheng, Beibei, and the trapped Ma Xiaotao.

Eighteen stars appeared on the surface of the light shield, shining brightly.

Huang Heyun and Yi Chen, who were originally fighting Ma Xiaotao, immediately turned their attack on Dai Yueheng, and the four Soul Kings launched a siege against him. Meanwhile, Bei Bei was constantly attacked by the Lightning Falcon Battle Soul King, and her self-defense was in danger.

Princess Jiujiu glanced indifferently at the icy mist outside the light barrier, a slight smile playing on her lips. There was a Soul Master in front of her, but he did not join the battle.

"Not good!" Ling Luochen cried out in alarm from within the icy mist. She quickly urged the mist to push inward, but the starlight-studded shield stubbornly blocked it, preventing it from penetrating even a fraction. One by one, the light of the eighteen stars began to dim. Clearly, unless all eighteen stars dimmed, the shield would not be broken.

This situation was something no one could have foreseen before the competition; Princess Jiujiu had actually split the seven Shrek Academy students in two. Moreover, Ling Luochen only now realized a problem: among their side, those skilled in attack were all inside the protective barrier. Outside the barrier, the four of them were not adept at offensive attacks.

"They thought that with just this, they could deal with the true power of a Soul Master..."

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Body".

Three purple, three black, and one red—seven super-configured spirit rings rose from beneath Ma Xiaotao's feet, and in an instant, the blood-red spirit ring lit up.

Ma Xiaotao transformed into a fire phoenix and broke through the encirclement.

"What?"

"Phoenix Meteor Shower..."

Before the Star Luo team could react, Ma Xiaotao's strongest group skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower, was amplified to its maximum. Fiery red rocks transformed into meteors, relentlessly bombarding the Star Luo team.

"Oh no! Protect the princess!"

Xu Jiujiu's expression shifted from surprise to shock. However, just as the Phoenix Meteor Shower approached Xu Jiujiu, a blinding light shone brightly once more.

Holy crap, how many pay-to-win items are you carrying? This is another invincible shield!

The protective shield previously used on Ma Xiaotao was similar to an invincible shield, but it was a special soul tool used in reverse. Once used, for a quarter of an hour, anyone sealed by the absolute defense shield would face the protection of an eighth-tier Soul Douluo-level defensive battle soul master.

This type of soul tool can currently only be manufactured by the Sun Moon Empire. Its core magic array is extremely secretive, and not even the three major empires could possibly manufacture it.

This absolute defensive shield has already been speculated to be worth millions of gold soul coins. Its price has basically surpassed that of some soul bones. But that's not wrong. Having it in hand is like having an extra life when facing a crisis.

Moreover, this soul tool is incredibly convenient to carry, as it is only the size of a bead. In summary, this thing is an upgraded version of the invincible shield.

However, even a Soul Master with the ability to defend against Soul Masters would crumble before Ma Xiaotao, because the opponent underestimated Ma Xiaotao's strength.

Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire Phoenix already possessed extremely high explosive power, and now it has not only been upgraded to the Soul Saint level, but also has a super configuration of three purple, three black and one red, making his strength no weaker than an eight-ring Soul Douluo who is close to a Title Douluo.

However, to Chen Qiye's surprise, even though he bought the embryo, this kind of soul tool, which was originally impossible to manufacture in the Three Kingdoms, still appeared on the competition field... The only thing he could think of was the butterfly effect.

But when Chen Qiye saw Ma Xiaotao nod at him, he immediately understood something. His figure vanished from the spot…

"Boom—" Amidst a deafening roar, half of the arena was engulfed in a blazing dark red flame. Ma Xiaotao's powerful area-of-effect explosion even affected the Shrek Academy team, and Ma Xiaotao gave them a signal, causing everyone except Chen Qiye to jump off the stage.

"Boom—" Amidst a deafening roar, half of the arena was engulfed in a blazing, dark red flame. The audience witnessed three figures soaring into the sky as the flames erupted, rescued by the Heavenly Fiend Douluo. However, the intense collision of the previous attack had already severely injured all three, shattering their Nine-Transformation Soul Instruments.

Oh no, it was four figures taking off into the air. Huang Heyun, who had already collapsed due to the excessive strain on his body, was also casually grabbed by Tian Sha Douluo and lifted into the air.

Under Ma Xiaotao's powerful output, the four Soul Kings were blasted off the stage in the blink of an eye. If the referee hadn't intervened and saved them, they wouldn't have been able to withstand Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Meteor Shower and would have been reduced to ashes long ago...

Finally, a massive meteor shower struck Xu Jiujiu directly. Four or five seconds passed before the smoke from the explosion dissipated. Ma Xiaotao had already exited her Martial Soul True Form state, while Xu Jiujiu had lost four of her invincible shields in the process.

When the beam of light dissipated, a long sword was already pressed against Xu Jiujiu's neck.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, the outcome is decided."

Chen Qiye spoke calmly. Chen Qiye appeared beside Xu Jiujiu at some point, and then grabbed Xu Jiujiu by the neck and threw her off the stage.

The defeat of Star Luo Royal Academy in this battle is inevitable. Having lost Xu Jiujiu and four Soul Kings, the remaining members simply cannot defeat Ma Xiaotao!

Finally, as if making a difficult decision, Chen Xiaojie, the leader, slowly said, "We concede!"

Shrek won, achieving victory once again. This victory was strange, or rather, shocking, demonstrating absolute true strength, with one person dominating the battlefield.

Ma Xiaotao came to Chen Qiye's side and said, "You really don't know how to cherish a lady. You just threw that princess down like that."

"So what? It has nothing to do with me. What does it have to do with me?"

"So, when your Sister Tao uses this evil fire again, won't she suffer a backlash???"

"Fortunately, my evil fire has evolved a lot since then, so pushing my soul power at full strength like this won't cause any problems."

"Alright, let's go!"

Chen Qiye nodded.
